The Hammerman’s Hall is a building of huge historical significance. We want to regenerate it to become a Meeting Room/Museum for all community groups to use with local history on display. 

This bid is to help with the essential rebuild of our Indoor Riding School ensuring continuation of our services that benefit disadvantaged young people experiencing personal challenges, their families and their communities in the Scottish Borders.

Providing access to a sensory garden area, an obstacle course and fitness equipment suitable for all ages. The facilities will enable families to exercise together, throughout the year to benefit all of the community to relax and have fun.
